El Salvador Deploys Troops to Haiti
El Salvador has deployed thousands of troops to Haiti in a high-stakes rescue mission following a gang ambush. The deployment serves as an overseas test for President Nayib Bukele's strict anti-gang policies amidst regional security concerns.
El Salvador deployed 2,000 troops to Haiti by late Wednesday, launching the first major overseas test of President Nayib Bukele's anti-gang security tactics. The rapid mobilization follows an October 18 gang ambush that left four Salvadoran aircraft technicians missing on the outskirts of Port-au-Prince.
